Abstract

According to the IPCC Second Assessment Report, climate change will lead to an alteration of the hydrological cycle and could have major impacts on regional water resources. India features a diverse range of wetlands, including high-altitude alpine lakes, littoral swamps in the form of mangroves and corals, and inland wetlands of various sorts. The Upper Ganga Ramsar Site is Uttar Pradesh's only Ramsar Site geographical distribution and may fluctuate as a result of climate change. Wetland reactions to climate change are frequently left out of global climate change models. The climate change adaptations must be incorporated into the economic development, planning, and implementation process.
